I used the full graphical installation method, which I believe is using VGA16 server. After everything set up, when trying to start X, using startx, the screen goes blank, than the server died. It said no valid mode found- I set it to use 640*480 - 8bpp. The graphic controller is WD90C24 A2. In the setting I put WD90C24 and VGA16 and Generic SVGA. It even still doesn't work when I used the Config example from the distribution. I'm new to BSD and X, and not having a great depth of knowledge on clockchip, etc. Please reply directly to me since I'm not in the mailing list. Thank you. _________________________________________________________ DO YOU YAHOO!?
